The schools joined and help create the Northeast Ohio Conference. The Pioneer Conference was formed in 1977 with six original members: Brecksville, Brunswick, Cloverleaf, North Royalton, Strongsville and Wadsworth. These schools had similar challenges in the late 1970s. They were outgrowing their conference opponents they left behind when the league formed; the Chippewa conference and the Cuyahoga County Conference. Their communities were also easily accessible from I-71, I-76 and I-271. In recent years Cloverleaf is the only school that has seen a continued decline in school size. Two high schools in the Berea City School District — Berea and Midpark — joined in 1979. These two schools were also part of the growing I-71 corridor of the late 1970s. Wadsworth left in 1984 for the Suburban League and was replaced by Medina two years later. North Ridgeville replaced Cloverleaf, which left to join the Suburban League in 1997.
